Bring Back Garo Items

[Eien713]

I swear to god you people can't read or just won't listen.

I got into FFXIV in 4.5. I wasn't even aware of GARO until the second announcement came and had no idea how the event even worked until there was two weeks left in the event. What I had been doing all that time before was leveling up, doing MSQ, doing the things one normally does when one starts a new MMO. The situation was worsened for me because I had changed my Grand Company to Adder to farm out some items and wasn't aware that you couldn't win games if you weren't on Maelstrom. So I got left out in the cold and ended up getting very, very little from the event. I don't have to be happy about things turned out and I am well within my rights to continually ask for the event to return. People who stalk me in these threads to tell me to shut up and stop asking aren't doing any sort of public service here. They are JUST BEING MEAN FOR THE SAKE OF BEING MEAN!!!

As is normal I simply have no desire to deal with these rude jerks and am ignoring because they are clearly not here to be helpful and not saying anything useful to me.

I don't see why I have to be mistreated because of a bunch of uppity jerks who don't want to share their toys.

And you people call me entitled.

My dude, calm down. I'll repeat what I remember writing in my reply in your old thread. It was no one's fault that you missed the event. Sometimes unpleasant stuff happens and it can't be helped. It's also not the devs' fault that things went down the way they did, and if they can't bring the event back for whatever legitimate reason (that others have explained to you over and over), then you'll have to accept that. My comment about entitlement comes from the way you word things. "Bring back X or Y" is not a request--it's an order. It makes you come off as entitled, especially since your predicament was something that couldn't be helped as far as the devs are concerned. I also seem to recall you wanted the rewards to be obtainable by means other than PvP, which is kinda unfair to those who suffered through the original event to get what they wanted. The way you argument and clash with others and lash out isn't doing you any favors either.

That was because the way to unlock things, particularly mounts, were tied to wins which were nigh impossible to secure if you weren't with the Maelstrom back then. Forgive me for feeling like this game has incredibly poor PvP, because it does.

And if I lash out, it's because I'm constantly being attacked and in some cases, stalked, by people who are trying to bully me into silence.

Huh, I've got the mounts and my Grand Company was - and is - the Immortal Flames. Same goes for my partner. If I remember correctly, we spent a couple of weeks with a few matches each evening to get our mounts - not "nigh impossible" at all.

...specially because for one of the Mounts Frontline didnt even matter, you had to play Feast (8 vs. 8 at the time, I believe). For a second mount, both wins in Frontlines and Feast counted, so again: Your GC didnt matter. Only the last mount required Frontline-wins - but even back then we already had the freelancer-option, so you could have ended up in maelstrom matches purely by chance.

Maelstrom always winning or you having to be with them is also closer to a meme than to the truth - winning as part of the other GCs was and is still possible, specially if you have someone to coordinate the team (that someone could be you, as long as you know enough about the modus thats played and how to do callouts there).

Stop blaming missing out on this on anyone but yourself - and stop putting out missinformation. For two mounts you didnt even have to touch frontlines, so Maelstrom or not doesnt matter.
